Things in poor neighborhoods are done differently than in middle- and upper- class neighborhoods. People that grow up in poor neighborhoods develop behaviors, customs, and beliefs that are different from other neighborhoods because they are part of surviving in the struggle. When they move on up, some of those behaviors, customs, and beliefs are no longer necessary and can even be harmful (e.g. strong reactions to perceived attacks). Others may actually provide an advantage (e.g. living through power outages). Regardless, these changes can cause a sense of estrangement from their childhood and original culture, leading to some resistance. Given all that:
What did you change and what did you keep?
There are a lot of shitty people in all socio-economic classes. They’re just not desperate once you get out of poverty, so they’re not going to steal everything that isn’t nailed down.
You’re not wrong. I just didn’t really expand on my meaning. Like I don’t disparage the homeless person (I’m assuming based on what was stolen) who stole a bike tire. Like I’m sure they need it more than me at that point, and I can afford it more than they can. But the bitch neighbors who stole medicine and food multiple times… Yeah I hope hell is real just for them.
